"Do any regions organize the events to make it _possible_ for drivers to
ride with jocks?"

In the Milwaukee region the indexed Instructor class runs heats 2 & 3
(other entrants run 1&3 or 2&4) so working the course isn't a problem.
The single most helpful thing you can do is ride along as a passenger in
your own car with a 'jock' driving it, (see McKamey school format).
Offer to let a 'jock' co-drive with you, it's well worth the tire cost.
We also offer morning course walks with the instructors, (something we
could probably also do during the WAI lunch breaks).  FYI, Milw region
is having non points test-n-tunes July 10 & 11th at County Stadium.
We'll have an easy to read course for Sunday to encourage folks to bring
out auto-x 'virgins'.  Now if we can only get a few more Wisconsinites
to come to Nats...
